Hey Don,
It looks like Thule unfortunately discontinued the 43215 U-bolt and there isn't a replacement available so your best option would be to pick up new U-bolts from your local hardware store. If you don't still have a U-bolt to measure you can just measure the holes, their spacing and the gauge how much length you'll need to pick out a new U-bolt that will fit. They should also have some compatible knobs with nuts built into them so that you can tighten the U-bolts down, securing the cargo box.
